Capcom has released some pictures of another new snowboarding game (not Freestyle Boardin' '99) and it looks HOT. Tricky Sliders, from Cave, is basically the sequel to Steep Slope Sliders for the Sega Saturn. However, since this new title is a PlayStation product, the graphics should be much cleaner and more detailed. Also of note is that there seem to be many more editing features than in Steep Slope Sliders (which certainly had its share). Now you can edit your characters, as well as record runs down the mountain. As with SSS, we expect the game to feature many camera effects and angles to replay the video. Other nuances from Cave's previous snowboard outing should be expected as well, from the exquisite playcontrol to the ability to use every obstacle to your advantage. Although we haven't played Tricky Sliders yet, we are expecting lots of fun and action. We contacted Capcom and discovered that the game's possibility for coming to the United States is high, but still under consideration. Pray to the man above that Capcom has some love for us all and this game sees light of day in the States.
